While President Barack Hussein Obama finally said several weeks ago, under intense mounting Congressional pressure, that he would not use drones to kill Americans overseas accused of terrorist acts, the Administration is now admitting to killing four: (1) Anwar al-Awlaki, a radical Muslim cleric who was killed in a drone strike in September 2011 in Yemen; (2) Samir Khan, who was killed in the same strike; (3) Mr. Awlaki’s son Abdulrahman al-Awlaki, who was also killed in Yemen; and (4) Jude Mohammed, who was killed in a strike in Pakistan.
